2nd T20 at Sydney 6 December 2020

[Burgey]

This is awesome for Sams

 

[Burgey]

That’s so ****ing good. Brilliant stuff

bowling Maxwell in the power play was massive in this game. Just a gash move

 

[Spikey]

turns out this guy can hit a ball

 

[quincywagstaff]

Great game of cricket.

Not sure about Australia's tactics that final over having a debutant left-armer bowl around the wicket with relatively little fielding protection on the leg-side.

 

[duffer]

Wade for Test captain imo

 

[h_hurricane]

Burgey should start test match threads as well. Good omen.

 

[Pup Clarke]

AJ Tye? Really? I mean, the guy was past his best a couple of years ago

 

[Arachnodouche]

Are we really expecting whoever slots in at no. 6 once Kohli's gone to be much better than Pandya? I would love to have him around if only just for his batting. Bonus if he can turn his arm over, but just his presence gives an x-factor to this team.

You know Australia aren't taking this seriously when you have Sams getting an Australian T20 Cap.
Are we that desperate, if so, where is Clive Rose.

The long sleeves Oz kit looks awesome. Only Henriques and Wade while keeping were wearing it I think.

Saeed Ajmal's influence lives on?

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

How inexperience is this Aussie bowling setup?

 

[honestbharani]

Washington Sundar is one of the genuinely great names of cricket

I raise you

 

[Burgey]

His parents obviously had very high ambitions for him in both the military and scientific fields.

 

[morgieb]

How inexperience is this Aussie bowling setup?

Only really Tye and Zampa have much T20 experience so yeah quite inexperienced. I'm more concerned about the quality, though....

 

[GoodAreasShane]

when you factor in this being MJ's fourth ODer or something, this is quite the line-up

Scorecard - 2005-2006 Bangladesh v Australia - 28/04/2006

One Day Internationals - Scorecard: 2005-2006 Bangladesh v Australia - 3rd Match - 28th April, 2006 - Khan Shaheb Osman Ali Stadium

Wow, two storey Brett Dorey, that's quite the blast from the past. Bit of an odd selection as I can't ever recall him being a very good white ball bowler even for WA

 

[Burgey]

Is this open house in Sydney or restricted numbers?

Actually, the easing of restrictions came in at midnight last night apparently, so the crowd was limited. Tuesday is unrestricted though

 

[honestbharani]

So full house on the cards?

 

[Daemon]

That's mad. Shouting, drunks, no social distancing, no masks. Seems like a recipe for a super spreading event.

Provided there are no tourists or returning Aussies jumping quarantine to get there, it should be fine.
